I’m looking for easy and cheap options for lunches on weekdays. I mostly eat deli sandwiches and hot dogs right now and I always feel like shit after eating them. I think I need something healthier but I don’t have time over my lunch hour to cook anything too fancy. What do you all do for reliable healthy easy lunches?

    Salad wraps are daily lunch for me. Goes a bit like this, but it’s really a loose recipe with whatever I have in the fridge.

    1. I’ll slice up some:

    Salad/cucumber Tomatoes Bell pepper

    1. Fry some falafel/halloumi/chicken in a small pan
    2. Heat up a tortilla in another pan until it has some color, but not too much or the tortilla will break when rolled
    3. Flip tortilla and add whatever cheese I have
    4. Put on a plate and garnish with everything
    5. Liberal amount of seasoning and hot sauce.
    6. Roll up tortilla

    I started doing this when I couldn’t taste anything with COVID and needed something with texture. Never stopped.
